    Summary

    Will's breath catches in his throat as he looks out over the lake, the red and blue lights from the police cruisers reflecting off the water.
    An arm, small and frail, hangs limp, pale finger tips dipping into the frigid water as it swings from the force of being moved.
    There, in the middle of the group of men all dressed in rescue gear, a little figure lies on a gurney, lifeless and unmoving.
    The child's face slowly registers in Will's mind. Hair blotted across the forehead, sticking from the water. Long eyelashes over pale cheeks. A mole above blue, cracked lips.
    His favorite jacket on his shoulders.
    The realization settles in his stomach, forboding and sickening.
    It.. It’s…
    “It’s Will. It’s really Will.”
    -
    It's terrible to realize that maybe everything you knew was, well, wrong.
    Something has gone awry in the universe, and it must be set right.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This is so sweet and cute and well-written that I think I'm going to implode. 10/10 this genuinely healed me.

    Summary

    “You… um, smoke?” Will asks before he can stop himself, swallowing as he watches a boy lean against the dusty, cracking brick wall.

    Will doesn’t know much about the boy, except that his name is Mike and his father is the pastor.

    “What?” He replies, pulling the cigarette from his lips and lightly blowing the smoke from his mouth. “Just because my dad is the pastor, you think I can’t enjoy a cigarette?

    OR:

    Will Byers is no stranger to religious guilt. He carries it everywhere he goes, and it’s starting to weigh him down.

    When he meets Mike Wheeler, the pastor’s son, he realizes there is more to life than just fearing God, and it’s much scarier.
